Zhu Yunxiu looked at me and looked out the window, he also glanced out the window, and then asked me softly, "Have you met someone you know?"

I hurriedly turned my gaze back, and muttered a little embarrassedly, "No, no......" Actually, I thought that the person I saw just now was like Ye Xing, but I didn't dare to confirm it yet.

Hearing me say this, Zhu Yunxiu smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.

The car was driving slowly, the road conditions at this time were still relatively congested, and during the interval of waiting for the red light, Zhu Yunxiu turned on the music on the car and played a melodious old song, which was Luo Dayou's.

Seeing that I was listening attentively, Zhu Yunxiu smiled and asked me, "Did you listen to this song when you were in school?"

I smiled and nodded, and replied, "Yes, when I was a freshman in high school, this song was popular all over campus. ”

Zhu Yunxiu nodded slowly, and then asked me again: "Xiao Su, you went to college in 95, right?"

I smiled faintly at him and denied: "No, I went to college in '94, I went to college relatively early, I went to college at the age of 17." ”

Zhu Yunxiu nodded slightly: "Oh, so that's the case." Then he added with a smile, "I was already working when you were in college." ”

I smiled and asked casually, "Brother Zhu, what year did you go to college?"

Zhu Yunxiu replied to me with a smile: "I went to college in 89. ”

I nodded slightly, and he recounted to me: "After graduating, I was assigned to work in a state-owned commercial bank, and after working there for a few years, I went to sea to do business. ”

I smiled and said, "Oh, me too, after I graduated, I was assigned to a state-owned enterprise, and I entered the propaganda department, and I had nothing to do all day, and I was young at that time, and I felt that it was a waste of my life to stay there, so I quit my job and found another company to do accounting." ”

As I spoke, I flicked the dust off my clothes, and my tone became relaxed, but for some reason, when I talked about these old topics, I seemed to find a sense of familiarity that I had not seen for a long time, and my whole body became relaxed, and the anxiety and anxiety I had when I first got in the car slowly disappeared.

Zhu Yunxiu saw that I was relaxed, and smiled at me knowingly, the smile was very warm, and I lowered my head a little embarrassed, as if he had insight into my heart.

After the red light, the car drove forward again, and the two of us were speechless for a long time, only the pop song of the old days echoed in the car.

Later, Zhu Yunxiu asked me softly: "Xiao Su, you and Deng Liang are college classmates, right?"

At the mention of Deng Liang's name, my expression became serious, I nodded, and replied lightly: "It should be said that we are university alumni, and he is one year higher than me." ”

Zhu Yunxiu nodded lightly, and I also asked him: "Are you and Ran Ran's mother college classmates?"

Hearing me ask this question, Zhu Yunxiu smiled faintly again, I found that this man loves to smile very much, this may also be a magic weapon for him to win in the mall, sometimes a smile can convince the opponent's heart more than serious and fierce.

After laughing, Zhu Yunxiu slowly replied to me: "We are not college classmates, Ran Ran's mother is three years younger than me, and her uncle is the vice president of the bank where I first worked, and he is also my immediate boss, and he is the one who brokered us." ”

I nodded in realization, thinking to myself that there was such a relationship with this.

Zhu Yunxiu glanced at me again, pondered for a moment, and then said to me slowly: "Xiao Su, you remind me a lot of things from the past......

I looked at him with some puzzlement, and at this time the car had already arrived outside the door of the teahouse where Zhu Yun was revised, and he stopped the car and said to me, "It's here, let's get out of the car." ”

I complied, got out of the car and walked with him to the teahouse.

This tea house is opened by the Japanese, the layout and structure inside are the style of old Japanese housing, Zhu Yun revised a separate room, the floor of the guest room is covered with tatami mats, and there is a delicate small square table, we took off our shoes at the door, and then slowly walked into this guest room with socks on, I knelt on the futon next to the small square table, and the movements were a little restrained, Zhu Yunxiu was very natural to sit cross-legged on the futon, it seems that he used to come here often to consume entertainment, so he has adapted to these habits.

The kimono-clad waitress quickly brought tea and sake, as well as a few delicate sweets, and then she filled the cups in front of each of us.

After the waiter stepped back, Zhu Yunxiu pointed to the sake in the wine glass and said to me: "This wine is not intoxicating, you taste it, the taste is very fresh." ”

I nodded slightly, picked up my glass and lowered my head to take a sip, feeling that the wine was sweet and smooth in the mouth, and it really had an endless aftertaste.

I raised my head and smiled at Zhu Yunxiu, and praised, "It's really good." ”

Seeing that I said yes, Zhu Yunxiu also smiled happily, and then asked me to eat a snack.

We ate and chatted, the topic slowly shifted from the children of the two families to some old things when we were in school, speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu's expression became a little sad, he continued the topic that he didn't finish in the car just now, he said to me: "Xiao Su, do you know why I said that you reminded me a lot of things back then?"

I looked at him and shook my head in bewilderment.

Zhu Yunxiu smiled bitterly, he looked at me fixedly, and then explained to me: "Because your temperament is very similar to the girlfriend I was in college, pure and quiet. ”

I let out an "oh" in surprise, looking at Zhu Yunxiu, his expression became even more sad at this time, and he said to me slowly: "Back then, our relationship was very sincere and pure, until graduation, I didn't hold her hand, I thought we could go on forever, but the cruel reality made us have no such possibility." She was an orientation student and had to go back to her hometown after graduation, and I was far away, and it was my parents' lifelong wish to stay in this city and develop a career, and in this way, we were separated by reality. ”

Listening to Zhu Yunxiu's narration, I nodded slowly, and at this time I understood in my heart why his attitude towards me was so gentle and amiable from the beginning, it turned out that I had a figure of someone he was familiar with.

"I still remember the first time I saw you, that was when Ran Ran went to your house to play, I went to pick her up, when you walked out of the door, I had the illusion of a sudden separation, as if time flew back to the college days of the year, really," Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu looked at me, his eyes became bright and eager, and he said to me affectionately, "For so many years, I have never seen such a woman who can move me again." ”

I was very embarrassed to hear him say this, and when he said this, where did he put his wife?

As if seeing through my thoughts, Zhu Yunxiu sighed softly, took a sip of sake, and then slowly explained to me: "Perhaps, you see that I and Ran Ran's mother Xie Fangju are very affectionate and sweet, but as the so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read, many couples will not easily expose their family problems. ”

I looked at him and whispered, "Oh, don't you think you're unhappy?"

Zhu Yunxiu smiled helplessly, and then said in a low voice: " Fang Ju was born well, her father and brother and the main relatives of the family are all on the career path, I admit that my boss introduced her to me at that time, on the one hand, I valued her soft and lovely appearance, on the other hand, I was born in a poor family and wanted to get ahead, and I also wanted to use a little strength of my father-in-law's family, I admit that this idea was not very glorious at that time, but please forgive a child from a poor family, who is helpless in this city and has no foundation, it is natural to have this kind of thought, but I didn't expect that everything has a price......

Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu held the wine glass in his hand and lowered his head deeply.

We were all silent, I waited for him to continue, and after a while, he began to say slowly: "The Xie family should also understand my psychology, so their whole family thinks that Fang Ju married me, his parents were against our marriage at that time, but her uncle, that is, my boss, valued my ability very much, and felt that I would definitely achieve a career in the future, so he tried his best to match us, Fang Ju should have been attracted by my appearance at that time," Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu laughed self-deprecatingly, " After all, I was also in Yushu at that time, but I didn't expect that a few years after marriage, everyone in the Xie family, including Fang Ju, had a strong sense of superiority in front of me, and I always had an inferiority complex in front of their family. ”

When I heard this, I didn't know what to say.

Zhu Yunxiu raised his head to look at me, his eyes looked very melancholy at this time, and he said lightly to me: "Although I finally succeeded, and the Xie family didn't dare to underestimate me anymore, but I can't find the happiness I had back then, my marriage with Fang Ju has also entered a frozen period over the years, although she has no sense of superiority in front of me, but she has repeatedly used the words that their family had promoted me in the early years to point out to me, and always remind me not to be ungrateful." As he spoke, Zhu Yunxiu raised his confused eyes to look at me, smiled faintly and bitterly, and muttered, "Do you think I seem to be ungrateful?"

I was speechless, so I smiled helplessly at him.

Zhu Yunxiu smiled bitterly and continued: "I've always understood Entubao, but this thing relies on conscience and feelings, not forcing you to be grateful to Dade every day and talk about other people's kindness. These are one of the reasons why my marriage with Fang Ju is getting colder and colder, and there is another reason, that is, she has had a gynecological operation and has no interest in sex since then, and I am in the prime of life, it is impossible not to have that need, so various reasons have caused us to be separated from each other, but I am grateful for her to be with me in my most difficult time, so I have always adhered to the principle that my wife will not go to court, and I will not break up with her easily. ”

I listened silently, keeping my head down, elbows on the edge of the table, and did not speak.

At this time, Zhu Yunxiu raised his head slightly, looked at me and said to me gently: "Xiao Su, I won't tell you, since Fang Ju didn't let me touch her, I have also looked for other young women in the past few years, but how to say it?" Although they have a young and beautiful appearance, but with them, I always have a kind of strangeness that cannot reach the depths of the soul through the barrier, I think, there is a difference in age, there is also a difference in cultivation, until I met you, I was deeply attracted by the gentle temperament on your body, although you are not as young and beautiful as them, but the familiar pure feeling on your body, which makes me feel particularly cordial. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yunxiu's emotions seemed to become a little excited, and he raised a hand and put it on the back of my hand.

I quickly removed my hand, then smiled at him awkwardly and muttered, "Brother Zhu, you should regard me as the shadow of your first love, right?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunxiu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said negatively: "No, now I know very well, you are you, she is her, maybe one of the reasons why you attracted me at the beginning was because it was a bit like her, evoking a little memory of the past, but the later it was, the lighter this feeling became," Zhu Yunxiu looked at me affectionately," I am still deeply attracted by your gentle and subtle temperament, I think Deng Liang gave up on you, it is his biggest loss in this life, if I can, let me protect you well, I promise not to let you live so tired, so hard......"

Zhu Yunxiu's words made me even more confused, I quickly half stood up and whispered to him: "I'm sorry, Brother Zhu, it's too late, I should go back." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yunxiu grabbed my arm and said to me hurriedly: "Xiao Su, don't be busy leaving, today I muster up the courage to tell my heart and discuss, just to show my heart to you, I can promise to be good to you for a lifetime, we can also have another child, my inheritance, there is a share of Ranran, there is a share of me and your child." What I can't give you is just a marriage letter, but I promise you that you will be treated the same as the main room in other respects, and even my heart will give you all of it. ”

"Brother Zhu, you let go of me! Let go of me first!" At this time, I had already stood up, desperately trying to get rid of Zhu Yunxiu's hand that was holding me, and my face was full of shame.

Zhu Yunxiu didn't let go of me, he also stood up with me, he didn't molest me further, but he didn't let go of my hand either, just grabbed me tightly like that, and then said to me firmly: "Xiao Su, I hope you think about what I said, I am serious about you, I feel very distressed to see you set up a stall in such a difficult environment in the city and village, but you still dare not accept my help." These days, I think about you every night, I want to hug you in my arms, I want to possess you forever, but I respect you and I won't do anything to hurt you, I think, if you find another one, you may not have my sincerity to you, so don't refuse me easily, think about my proposal, okay?"

I used all my strength to break free of Zhu Yunxiu's hand, and shouted at him in a low voice, "You let go of me first!"

He finally let go, I rubbed his painful wrist and whispered to him, "I'm sorry, I really can't accept having that kind of relationship with a married man, so I will definitely not consider your proposal, please ...... Find someone else!"

Listening to my words of refusal without hesitation, Zhu Yunxiu's face looked ugly, disappointed and mixed with deep helplessness, and he further promised me: "Xiao Su, if you are worried about Xie Fangju's attitude, you can rest assured that I can directly talk to Fang Ju and let her acquiesce to the existence of our relationship." ”

As soon as I heard this, I felt even more frightened in my heart, and while I stepped back, I waved my hand at him desperately, and said urgently: "No, no, no, no! I absolutely cannot accept this way of life, even if Xie Fangju agrees, I can't accept it to others...... Be a concubine, you better let me go!" I turned around and walked briskly towards the door.

Zhu Yunxiu chased after me all of a sudden, grabbed me at the door, and said to me eagerly: "Xiao Su, don't be busy leaving, you listen to me finish talking......"

The more he dragged me, the more scared I became, so I desperately tried to open the door, but just as we were pulling, the door suddenly opened, and there was a waitress in a kimono standing outside.

The waitress probably heard the movement and thought that we couldn't open the door inside, so she helped us open the door outside, and at the same time asked us humbly: "Sir, ma'am, do you have any instructions?"

When I saw this waitress, I quickly stood up as if I had seen a rescuer, hurriedly put on my shoes at the door, and was about to run out of the gate.

There were outsiders present, and Zhu Yunxiu didn't dare to be as presumptuous as just now, but he still caught up, took my arm and whispered to me: "Xiao Su, I'll send you back......"

I quickly shook off his hand, waved at him and said, "No, no, I'll take a taxi back by myself, so I won't trouble you!"

Sitting in the taxi, I still feel that my heart is "pounding" and beating, the shock wave brought to me by Zhu Yunxiu today is too big, I never dreamed that such a humble gentleman who is usually gentle and elegant, if he really moved into love, he would be so aggressive and careless, the scene at that time really frightened me.

Finally, the taxi finally came to the gate of the community where I lived, I paid the fare, got out of the car, and hurried to the community.

When I passed by the flower bed downstairs, I felt that there seemed to be a person sitting on the steps, but because it was night, I couldn't see clearly, and the panic in my heart at this time had not yet been resolved, so I didn't have time to take care of it, glanced at the person and hurried to the door.

Unexpectedly, the man said coldly behind me, "The date is back?"

Hearing this familiar voice, I stopped and looked at it, and sure enough, I heard it correctly, it was Ye Xing.

I saw him slowly get up, slowly paced in front of me, and said to me in a weird way: "It must be a good date with a super big guy, right?" His mouth had a strong smell of wine, it seemed that he should have been drinking just now.

Listening to his yin and yang strange tone, I couldn't get angry, I was scared by Zhu Yunxiu just now, but now he came to sneer again, the question is who am I dating and what does it have to do with him?

So I replied coldly, "Nervous!" and ignored him, and strode upstairs.
